Compatibilization of ethylene/maleic anhydride/glycidyl methacrylate terpolymer for poly(phenylene sulfide)/poly(amide‐66) blends

In this article, a terpolymer of ethylene, maleic anhydride, and glycidyl methacrylate (EMG) was used to enhance the compatibilization between poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) and polyamide‐66 (PA66). The mechanical properties, morphology, crystalline and melting behavior, and rheology of blends were discussed. The results showed that EMG was a good compatibilizer for PPS and PA66 through chemical reaction with them. The new generated polymer could prevent the aggregation of dispersed particles and reinforce the interface bonding. In addition, it could not only act as a nucleating agent for PA66 to refine its spherulites and improve its crystallinity but also promote the apparent viscosity of blends and enhance the non‐Newtonian behavior. The results will be useful to make high performance PPS/PA66 alloy with low cost and enlarge the application scope of PPS and PA66 resin. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012     

Nonisothermal crystallization of polyamide 66/poly(phenylene sulfide) blends

The crystalline morphologies of isothermally and nonisothermally crystallized poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) and its blend with polyamide 66 (PA66) were investigated by polarized optical microscopy with a hot stage. The spherulite superstructure of PPS was greatly affected by crystallizable PA66; a Maltese cross was not clear, and the impingement between spherulites disappeared. This could be ascribed to the formation of small crystals of PA66, which filled in the PPS lamellae. The nonisothermal crystallization behavior was also measured by differential scanning calorimetry. The presence of PA66 changed the nonisothermal crystallization process of PPS. The maximum crystallization temperature of the PPS phase in the blend was higher that that of neat PPS, and this indicated that PA66 acted as a nucleus for PPS. Also, the compatibilizer poly(ethylene‐stat‐methacrylate) (EMA) was added to modify the interfacial interplay of the PA66/PPS blend system. The addition of EMA greatly influenced the nonisothermal crystallization process of the PPS phase in the blend system. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008     

Mechanical and tribological properties of PA66/PPS blend. II. Filled with PTFE

The mechanical and tribological properties of 70 vol % PA66/30 vol % PPS blend filled with different content of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) were studied in this paper. It was found that the addition of PTFE impairs the mechanical properties of PA66/PPS blend, but greatly increases the wear resistance and decreases the friction coefficient. When PTFE content exceeds 20 vol %, the friction coefficient of composite is minimum (0.15) and lower than that of pure PTFE under the same conditions (0.22). The lowest wear volume (0.44 mm³) is obtained with PA66/PPS/30 vol % PTFE composite, which decreased by 91% compared with unfilled PA66/PPS blend (4.99 mm³). The topography of transfer film and the elemental distribution were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS), respectively. Because of the characteristic crystalline structure, PTFE preferentially transferred to the steel ring surface and formed a thin, uniform and firmly adhered transfer layer, which reduced the ability of PA66/PPS blend to transfer and prevent the adhesion between the sample and the couterface. In addition, the superior lubrication of PTFE inhibited the frictional heat melting during sliding. All these aspects are close related to the friction and wear behavior of PA66/PPS/PTFE composite. Upon the addition of PTFE, thermal control of friction regime is not applicable to the PA66/PPS blend. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 101: 969–977, 2006     

Multiple melting behavior of polyphenylene sulfide blends with polyamide 6

Although there are many studies on the multiple melting behavior of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) homopolymer, similar investigations on PPS component in PPS blends with thermoplastics are relatively rare. In the present paper, the multiple melting behavior of PPS blends with polyamide 6 (PA6) have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The double melting peaks are also observed for PPS in the blends. Although the annealing temperature and time as well as the heating rate of DSC scanning are different, the lower melting peak temperature of PPS in the blend is higher than that of pure PPS and the higher melting peak temperature is lower than that of pure PPS. It is suggested that PA6 can accelerate the cold‐crystallization of amorphous PPS due to the possible presence of interfacial interaction between the component polymers to induce the heterogeneous nucleation, and increase the perfection of PPS crystals. The multiple melting behavior of PPS in the blends are explained by recrystallization. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 78: 1579–1585, 2000     

Mechanical and tribological properties of PA66/PPS blend. III. Reinforced with GF

Based on previous work, 70 vol % PA66/30 vol % PPS blend was selected as a matrix, and the PA66/PPS blend reinforced with different content of glass fiber (GF) was prepared in this study. The mechanical properties of PA66/PPS/GF composites were studied, and the tribological behaviors were tested on block‐on‐ring sliding wear tester. The results showed that 20–30 vol % GF greatly increases the mechanical properties of PA66/PPS blend. When GF content is 20 vol %, the friction coefficient of composite is the lowest (0.35), which is decreased by 47% in comparison with the unfilled blend. The wear volume of the GF‐reinforced PA66/PPS blend composite decreases with the increase of GF content. However, the wear‐resistance is not apparently improved by the addition of GF in the experimental range for comparison with unfilled PA66/PPS blend. The worn surface and the transfer film on the counterface were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The observations revealed that the friction coefficient of composite depends on the formation and development of a transfer film. The wear mechanism involves polymer matrix wear and fiber wear. The former consists of melting wear and plastic deformation of the matrix, while the latter includes fiber sliding wear, cracking, rupturing, and pulverizing. The contributions of the matrix wear and the fiber wear determine the ultimate wear volume of PA66/PPS/GF composite. In addition, the abrasive action caused by the ruptured glass fiber is also a very important factor. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 102: 523–529, 2006     

Friction and wear mechanisms of PA66/PPS blend reinforced with carbon fiber

The mechanical and tribological properties of carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polyamide 66 (PA66)/polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) blend composite were studied in this article. It was found that CF reinforcement greatly increases the mechanical properties of PA66/PPS blend. The friction coefficient of the sample decreases with the increase of CF content. When CF content is lower (below 30%), the wear resistance is deteriorated by the addition of CF. However, the loading of higher than 30% CF significantly improves the tribological properties of the blend. The lowest friction coefficient (0.31) and the wear volume (1.05 mm³) were obtained with the PA66/PPS blend containing 30% CF. The transfer film and the worn surface formed by sample during sliding were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The observations revealed that the friction coefficient of PA66/PPS/CF composite depends on the formation and development of a transfer film on the counterface. The abrasive wear caused by ruptured CFs (for lower CF content) and the load bearing ability of CFs (for higher CF content) are the major factors affecting the wear volume. In addition, the improvements of mechanical properties, thermal conductivity, and self‐lubrication of bulk CFs are also contributed to the wear behavior of PA66/PPS/CF composite. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
